Egypt questions

[DodgyGeezer]

looking at the idea of a short(ish) break to interesting parts when Egypt and Jordan appeared on the radar. Just curious about a few things...


1. Has any used these guys before and if so what are your experiences?

2. an obvious question has to be about how safe it is given the current round of unpleasantness in the neighbourhood? I figure it can't be too worrisome as having your guests hurt, or worse, isn't good for business! Still has to be a concern though, or am I being a little bit precious?

I don't know anything about Egypt but I lived in Jordan in the early 90's for about a year and really enjoyed it. Good people, safe and lots of places to visit.

Looks great - I've done a very similar tour without the Jordan element. Its a very, very well established tourist route. Never felt unsafe. We did have a military escort to the Sinai Peninsular, but its been like that for a very long time due to driving through bandit country.

I like that tour a lot - yours. I'm looking at taking my other half who's not done Egypt (Egypt is an absolute must for anyone remotely interested in culture - or pretending to be Indiana Jones)
